Do read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment. Do ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and interconnections between pieces of equipment) are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. Switch off and withdraw the mains plug when making or changing connections. Do consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your equipment. Do be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment. DONT continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or if it is damaged in any way switch off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer. DONT remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages. DONT leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is specifically stated that it is designed for unattended operation or has a standby mode. Switch off using the switch on the equipment and make sure that your family know how to do this. Special arrangements may need to be made for infirm or handicapped people. DONT use equipment such as personal stereos or radios so that you are distracted from the requirements of traffic safety. It is illegal to watch television whilst driving.

Introduction

Notes on handling

7 Important cautions

Installation of the system Select a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold; between 5C and 35C. Leave sufficient distance between the system and the TV. Do not use the system in a place subject to vibration. Power cord Do not handle the power cord with wet hands! A small amount of power is always consumed while the power cord is connected to the wall outlet. When unplugging the power cord from the wall outlet, always pull on the plug, not the power cord. To prevent malfunctions of the system There are no user-serviceable parts inside. If anything goes wrong, unplug the power cord and consult your dealer. Do not insert any metallic object into the system. Do not use any non-standard shape disc (like a heart, flower or credit card, etc.) available on the market, because it may damage the system. Do not use a disc with tape, stickers, or paste on it, because it may damage the system.

If a DVD with an improper Region Code number is loaded, REGION CODE ERROR! appears on the TV screen and playback cannot start. About files (tracks) and folders (groups) on the disc This system can also play MP3 and JPEG files recorded on CD-Rs and CD-RWs. Files are sometimes grouped into folders on CD-Rs or CD-RWs by genre, album, etc. In this manual, group is also referred to as folder, and track as file. This system recognizes up to 150 files per group, and 99 groups per disc. The total number of files this system can detect on a disc is up to 1000.
The following discs cannot be played back: DVD AUDIO, DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, CD-ROM, CD-I (CD-I Ready), Photo CD, SACD, etc. Playing back these discs will generate noise and damage the speakers.
On some DVD VIDEOs, VCDs or SVCDs, their actual operation may be different from what is explained in this manual. This is due to the disc programming and disc structure, not a malfunction of this system.

THS1[B]-04start.fm Page 4 Monday, May 31, 2004 3:05 PM
Notes on CD-R and CD-RW User-edited CD-Rs (Recordable) and CD-RWs (Rewritable) can be played back only if they are already finalized. When making your own disc, select ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2 for the disc format. This system supports multi-session discs (up to 20 sessions). This system cannot play packet write discs. Before playing CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions or cautions carefully. CD-RWs may require a longer readout time. This is caused by the fact that the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular CDs. Some discs may not be played due to their disc characteristics, recording conditions, or damage or stain on them. This system can play CD-Rs or CD-RWs recorded in the audio CD format. This system can also play CD-Rs or CD-RWs if MP3 or JPEG files are recorded on them. Especially, the configuration and characteristics of an MP3/JPEG disc are determined by the writing (encoding) software and hardware used for recording. Therefore, due to the software and hardware used, the following symptoms may occur: Some tracks/files on an MP3/JPEG disc may be skipped or may not be played normally. Some files on a JPEG disc may be played distortedly. Notes on MP3/JPEG discs MP3/JPEG discs (either CD-R or CD-RW) require a longer readout time. (It differs due to the complexity of the directory/file configuration.) The system can only recognize files with one of the following extensions, which can be in any combination of upper and lower case: MP3:.MP3,.mp3 JPEG:.JPG,.JPEG,.jpg,.jpeg If different kinds of the file are mixed on a disc, set the FILE TYPE setting in the PICTURE menu to the appropriate setting for the data to be read (AUDIO or STILL PICTURE). (See page 32.) Notes on MP3 files Tag information (album name, artist name, and track name) can be shown on the TV. (See page 24.) The system can play back the MP3 files recorded at 32 kbps to 320 kbps as a bit rate, and at 16 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 24 kHz, 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz as a sampling frequency. We recommend to record each piece of material (song) at a sample rate of 44.1 kHz and at a data transfer rate of 128 kbps. Notes on JPEG files We recommend to record a file at 640 x 480 resolution. (If a file has been recorded at a resolution of more than 640 x 480, it will take a longer time to be displayed.) This system can only play baseline JPEG files.

Turn the loop antenna until you have the best reception during AM (MW) broadcast program reception. NOTE
Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other terminals, connecting cords and power cords. This could cause poor reception.

Surround speakers
When you connect speakers other than the supplied ones, use speakers of the same speaker impedance (SPEAKER IMPEDANCE) indicated on the rear of the center unit. DO NOT connect more than one speaker to one speaker terminal.
When installing the satellite speakers on the wall; Be sure to have them installed on the wall by a qualified personnel. DO NOT install the satellite speakers on the wall by yourself to avoid unexpected damage from their falling off the wall due to incorrect installation or weakness in wall structure. Care must be taken in selecting a location for speaker installation on a wall. Injury to personnel or damage to equipment may result if the speakers installed interfere with daily activities.

* Some TVs SCART connectors output audio signal. In such a case, you can enjoy the TV sound through this system. NOTE
Although the satellite speakers and the subwoofer are magnetically shielded, the TV screen may appear mottled. In this case, keep enough distance between the speakers and the TV. The speakers are magnetically shielded to avoid color distortions on TVs. However, if not installed properly, it may cause color distortions. So, pay attention to the following when installing the speakers.
No sound signal comes out from AV (SCART) connector. Select the appropriate video signal according to your TV. (See page 15.)
